I am trying to figure out if being a nationally registered EMT will affect someone once they get to the EMT/Paramedic portion of the pipeline. Will the individual be able to retake EMT if he so chooses or does he HAVE to bypass that portion of the pipeline since he is already nationally registered? I have searched the site and have found information about bypassing it, but my real question is if the individual will be able to retake the class so that he will be even more ready for the Paramedic portion.
